How Faith Comes - Teachings

 How Faith Comes

In the same way, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God (Romans 10:17). 

 

The apostle Paul gives us a heavenly way to increase our faith. This heavenly growing belief system is God's solution to our faith problem. Whether you are struggling to believe in God's Word or contemplating how to build your faith, this prayer will be a revelation for your next level of faith. 

 

Before explaining how faith comes, let’s briefly review the current state of the beliefs of most Christians. As a believer and pastor, through personal struggles and ministry to other believers, I have come to know that we have faith problems. This crisis of faith is paradoxical. Believers struggle to believe. Faith also remains a mystery in the hearts of many believers. 

 

Nevertheless, it remains the basis of our relationship with God and of the Christian's daily life. Therefore, we must overcome all obstacles and grow in the course of faith. Knowing how faith comes to us is the beginning of faith growth. Romans 10:17 says, “Faith comes by hearing.” First, it becomes the foundation upon which faith is born. We can gain or strengthen our faith. Therefore, when we find ourselves unfaithful or having little faith in any situation, this verse shows that faith can come to us. And we go further to show how that happens. 

 

Faith comes from hearing the Word of God (or Christ as in the Greek text). The key terms are “hearing” and “the word of Christ.” Faith comes from hearing, not just reading. It is the voice of God in the Word that awakens faith. Hearing God's voice is a central New Testament concept, and I have written many articles about it. His voice is not necessarily an audible sound, but the breath of the Holy Spirit in the heart of a man who in the present breathes life into the Word of God. You can hear His voice while reading the Bible or listening to a sermon. It is the voice of God in the Word we read or hear that brings faith. Therefore, hearing the voice of God is the cornerstone of gaining or growing faith.

The Goodness of God - Daily Devotional

  Verse: Psalm 100:5 (NIV) - "For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations." Devotional: Today, let us reflect on the profound truth that God is good. His goodness is not contingent on our circumstances, but it remains constant, unwavering, and eternal. In Psalm 100:5, we are reminded that the Lord's goodness is inseparable from His enduring love, and His faithfulness transcends generations. As you begin your day, consider the goodness of God in the light of your own life. Think about the moments when His goodness has been evident, whether through answered prayers, unexpected blessings, or moments of divine guidance. God's goodness surrounds us, and even in challenges, there is a purpose that unfolds through His love. In times of joy, acknowledge the goodness of God with gratitude. In times of trial, trust in His goodness, knowing that He works all things for the good of those who love Him (Romans 8:28). Take a ...

What is the favor of God, and how can I get it? - Bible Teachings

  The concept of the favor of God is found throughout the Bible, and it generally refers to God's kindness, grace, and blessings bestowed upon individuals. Here are some key teachings on the favor of God and how to attain it: 1. Seek God's Will: Proverbs 3:5-6 advises us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and not rely on our understanding. When we seek and align ourselves with God's will, we are more likely to receive His favor. 2. Humility: The Bible often emphasizes the importance of humility. In James 4:6, it is said that God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. Humility opens the way for God's favor in our lives. 3. Faith: Hebrews 11:6 teaches that without faith, it's impossible to please God. Trusting in God's promises and having faith in His goodness can attract His favor. 4. Obedience: God's favor is often linked to obedience to His commandments. Deuteronomy 28:1-2 states that if we diligently obey the voice of the Lord, H...
